Mentoring
Faculty Mentor Bank
Outside of the formally assigned Advising Deans, each student has access to a bank of faculty mentors. These faculty members have expressed a concerted interest in developing mentoring bonds with medical students during their preclinical years and beyond. If you are a Washington University medical student, visit WUSTL Box to access the Faculty Mentor Bank.
